This morning I went out and tried to start the truck. After 30 seconds of turning over the starter stopped and a burnt smell came from the starter. So tonight I pulled it in the shop and started to pull the starter off, found a bolt loose, and heard the abendix snap back. So I tightened the starter and still nothing. So I took the starter off and found the connector that connects the starter to the solenoid burnt off. Can this be solder back on or do I need a new starter?
